Chapter 2 -Fontaine City, the capital of the Knights
Part 1
Early in the morning on the fourteenth day in the month of Cancer.
The day to depart to the capital Fontaine City had finally arrived. Ash and Eco had already made their preparations for the journey and were standing in front of the campus’s fountain.
Actually, today also happens to be the first day of the end semester examination, but Ash and Silvia had requested to leave the school grounds and will take the makeup examination when they returned to Ansarivan.
But will the thought of meeting with the Paladin, Ash felt that this end semester examination is but a trivial matter.
"Anyway...... this outfit is really hot."
While Ash is adjusting his bow tie with his fingers, he complained.
Ash is in a palace designed manservant uniform. The dark coat gave an extra elegant feel.
"Don’t you know that I also feel very hot!!!"
On the other hand, Eco is also wearing a maid attire which is also palace designed. It is exactly the same like what Cosette worn every day. Even though she still looked kind of cute in the uniform, unfortunately her unnecessary egoistic self-esteem is at work, which cause her mood to be ugly.
Needless to say, it is not Ash and Eco’s intention to wear their clothes this way.
In fact, this was proposed by Cosette.
This is to avoid unwanted rumours when the two of them went back to Fontaine city with Silvia.
Indeed, when a Princess travelled back home with a male student together, it is not surprising that some rumours will be born from it. Moreover, it seems that the thing that attracts the news reporters’ curiosity most is the affairs of the palace’s nobles. This is also the reason why Eco and Ash were disguised as servants
First bell happens to sound at this time.
The students rushed out of their dormitory and rushed to the school. On the exam day, each student has a terrible murderous expression.
"Fuwaa ......"
Eco yawned. She is still sleepy for getting up early and she looked as if she is without spirit. Even so, her shiny hair that reflects the morning rays is like a pink gem stone which gave her a divine like look.
"Err...... is Silvia not ready yet?"
"For Princess-sama, it is like she is going back home. It should have been that she needed more time to pack up her stuffs"
"What did she meant by that? She asks us out early in the morning but she is late herself? How could there be such s rude female animal!"
"Hey, how you can call Princess-sama as a 'female animal'!"
Eco needs to be taken care of what she is going to speak before she causes trouble by uttering some nonsense in town...... Ash secretly thought.
Part 2
A few moment after the bell rang, Lancelot landed gracefully with Silvia and Cosette on its back.
"Sorry to keep you waiting."
Silvia had her blond hair tied and is wearing a dragsuit embroidered with the knight’s royal insignia. She looks as if she is a mythological character.
Coiled hair
Eco immediately lost her sleepiness and angrily shouted:
"Why are you so slow!! And what’s with that costume? And you even made a prideful dragon to wear a servant’s clothing...... What a disappointment!!!"
"Ara, I’m so sad. I had initially happily thought that it is a rare chance for me to be in the same attire as Eco......"
Cosette replied for Silvia. She covers her mouth with her hands and turns her face to avoid looking at Eco, and started sniffing.
"Wait...... what is there worth crying about! That...... You usually took care of me, and since we have the opportunity to wear the same clothes, I'm also glad about it ......"
"Hehe. Thank you Eco."
Sure enough, Cosette with a nonchalant look is laughing.
"Wha… How dare you lie to me!"
Eco immediately grew angry, but nothing more could be done.
"We are ready to take off. Both of you please come up!"
Under Silvia’s command, the group finally departed.
